vmware-config.pl tells me that the kernel is compiled with gcc 4.2.3 but I have
4.2.4 installed. So I guess it depends on what your kernel is compiled with.
/proc/version tells you what version of gcc was used for your kernel.
I can't say I am expert on this topic.

Under Ubuntu at least, vmware-config.pl is complaining about a mismatch of gcc
versions. Do you have a similar problem? what version of gcc are you running?
